Effects of error, chimera, bias, and GC content on the accuracy of amplicon sequencing
ABSTRACTTargeted amplicon sequencing is widely used in microbial ecology studies. However, sequencing artifacts and amplification biases are of great concern. To identify sources of these artifacts, a systematic analysis was performed using mock communities comprised of 16S rRNA genes from 33 bacter...
